Description
We are
Porsche.

We are home to what is, in the extraordinary scale of the automotive world, a small family of passionate enthusiasts - established in 1948 and run in Stuttgart to this day by the same family that bears the company name.


In the UK, we are trusted to represent and care for some of the most exciting, fastest, most advanced and beautiful cars ever created.

We work with incredible and often inspiring customers who rightly expect our performance and ambition to match that of our cars.

Being relatively small means we are agile - an environment in which creativity thrives. It also means every one of us makes a difference.

When it comes to creating our cars, we sweat the small stuff and we truly care about every part of our business - whether on the road, competing on the track or in styling and dynamics.

We are aiming to establish the benchmark in an industry in which the bar is set very high.


We want Porsche to be the destination for exclusive, exhilarating mobility in the UK, through innovation, performance and unrivalled customer enthusiasm.

With the launch of our first all-electric car, our business will, in many ways, change more in the coming five years than it has done in the past five decades.
